Genome-Wide Analysis and Evolutionary Perspective of the Cytokinin Dehydrogenase Gene Family in Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

Cytokinin dehydrogenase (CKX; EC.1.5.99.12) regulates the level of cytokinin (CK) in plants and is involved in CK regulatory activities.In different plants, a small gene family encodes CKX proteins with varied numbers of members.These genes are expanded in the genome mainly due to segmental duplication events.Despite their biological importance, CK

The effect of sublethal concentration of Decis 2.5 EC pesticide on learning and memory processes in common carp, Cyprinus carpio (Actinopterygii: Cypriniformes: Cyprinidae)

Background.Animals acquire new skills due to conditioned responses resulting from a sequence of neutral and unconditioned stimuli affecting their bodies; there is a constant time interval between the stimuli.Both stimuli become associated after a number of repetitions and animal bodies start to respond to the initially neutral stimulus as to the un
